So I have a friendly game coming up in a few days. He's pretty new to the game, so I decided I'd like to run some models that genuinely don't get enough field time. That being, my Grotly units. While Mek Gunz get a lot of use normally, they happen to fit into my list so I tossed em in as well :p He'll be running his Space Pups, so why not give him little dudes to come hunting for while we cower behind terrain! Not an overly powerful list in my eyes, but should give him plenty of stuff to try to squish

First up:

Big Mek

Only about 775 in points, but I'm out of CAD for Grots and I don't have any more gretchen! XD But that's the jist of it. Just a goofy list to throw at some Space Pups! Drown em in ankle biters and random dice tosses!

Whenever I see an Ork Mech list I wonder why they dont swarm with Gretchen...

Thank you sir.

Forgive the silly question but I must ask as I am not all that familiar with Orks; how many points are each of those Gretchin groups? I am curious.

Uhh, I'm not sure points are supposed to be posted but, Gretchen are 35points for a minimum squad of 10 and 1 Runtherd. 3 points for each gretchen you wish to add, to a max of 30.

might consider putting 2 of the gretchin squads into a 30 man squad? they wont run away as easily. also may want a squig per squad everything to help morale.

might consider using kustom mega blastas instead of bubbles? they are smaller blast but more reliable and are always st 8 ap 2, just remember to take some ammo runts

might also consider having grotzookas on everything coz they are great but rokkits are fine too

The Zookas are amazing, I can't lie. But I mostly chose Rokkits on a few so they might be able to assist in tank glancing, as the zookas won't be able to :p Chose Chuckas just cuz of Ap1, though KMK's are more reliable. No argument :p
